Kadaga said that good political environments translate into development leading to economic opportunities for the citizens of the African countries leading to better standards of living and no need to seek better lives elsewhere.

Speaking at the 25th anniversary celebrations of the Westminster Foundation for Democracy in London, United Kingdom, Kadaga said that Africans are dying on the Mediterranean Sea, because democracy has not yet delivered especially on the economic side

Deliberating on the topic, “Prosperity and Stability: Why only democracy can deliver, Kadaga called on the European states to work towards ensuring that the conditions in Africa are improved to avoid the continuing calamities on the sea as people attempt to reach Europe as immigrants.

Over 2,400 people died between January and August 2017 attempting to cross the Mediterranean Sea. 5,143 migrants from different countries of Africa died in 2016.
